I'm a born and raised Oakland Raider fan. My father was a Raider season ticket holder and I went to my first Raider game when my mother was pregnant with me. The fans were awesome back in the day. Going to Raider games was a highlight of my youth. Too bad the thug element came to Oakland when the Raiders moved back from LA. I'd still be going to the games if it was like the old days.
As a Raider fan, your best day is when the 49ers do bad. (This doesn't always work out well when your girlfriend is a diehard 49ers fan.) It's such a weird Bay Area thing. You either love the Raiders or you love the 49ers. There is no in between. Has anyone ever seen a car with 49ers and Raiders bumper stickers?
I am a Raiders fan through and through, but I am even more of a professional football fan. I think it is the greatest professional sport on the planet with the most amazing athletes on the planet. That being said, I can't help but be amazed at what the 49ers have accomplished this season. The last two minutes of the game last week was some of the most exciting football I've ever seen. I am actually pulling for the 49ers to win this weekend. Did I just say that?!?!?!
Don't know what will happen, but here's a vid for all you 49ers fans to get fired up about.....

You may have had one too many Sierras before posting this. There's still time for you to hate on the 49ers and root for Blue!

49ers story book is over today. Alex Smith is a lot better than everyone thought, but I think he's lunch for a stout Giants rush...

I am probably a few that love both Raiders and Niners. LETS GO NINERS!!

Niners are choking big time. They got a lucky TD otherwise this game would be 10 zilch. Giants will clean up in the second half. They are outplaying the forty whiners in every way possible.
Giants vs New England, who do you think will win? New England will be a 10 point favorite.
